A UK supermarket chain is firing its self-checkout stations and bringing back real people as cashiers

• UK supermarket chain Booths is doing away with self-checkout stations in almost all its stores.
• The decision comes as customers complain about self-checkout stations being slow and impersonal.
• Even in the US, major retailers like Walmart and Costco are revising self-checkout strategies.

Booths, a high-end supermarket chain in the UK, is swapping out its self-checkout stations with manned cashiers in the majority of its stores. 

The chain will retain self-checkout stations in only two out of its 28 stores, according to the BBC.
